The Courier10-06-2025

A Bridge of Allan family recently appeared on Location, Location, Location.
It's not the first time Stirlingshire has featured on a property television show; from Scotland's Home of the Year to Love It or List It, viewers love a peek inside other people's homes.
From hunting for the perfect home to renovating run-down rooms – here are five times Stirling or Stirlingshire has featured on property TV shows.
A mother and daughter enlisted the help of Phil Spencer and Kirstie Allsopp on Location, Location, Location to find their dream home in Stirling.
The Channel 4 show, featuring Lorraine Macleod and Emma Carman, aired in June 2025.
The pair, who were living with Lorraine's parents, viewed four homes within their budget of £275,000.
However, despite offering well above the asking price for a cottage in Torbrex, Lorraine and Emma lost out on the property.
Luckily, they found their dream three-bedroom townhouse in Bridge of Allan for £255,000 after the show.
Scotland's Home of the Year has featured several Stirlingshire homes since it first aired in 2019.
This year, a steading conversion in Deanston was part of the BBC show.
The Dairy, owned by Mhairi and Andrew Wilson since 2023, boasts impressive views over the Trossachs.
In 2024, a mill conversion near Dunblane was part of the series. The 200-year-old building had been abandoned for 25 years before it was lovingly restored by Lee and Dawn Collins.
Plus, a Georgian renovation in rural Killearn was crowned the winner in 2021. Judges loved The Moss' 'dreamy pink interior' which included a pink Aga cooker in the kitchen.
TV presenter Kaye Adams appeared on a celebrity edition of Escape to the Country last year.
The Loose Women presenter viewed four properties in Stirlingshire to find a three-bedroom home with open plan living, a garden and space to record her podcast.
Kaye, who had a budget of £850,000, said her favourite house looked over Loch Ard.
An episode of Homes Under the Hammer featured a Stirling flat last year.
A Musical Sink saw host Martel Maxwell, from Dundee, follow Ross as he purchased a damp run-down property in the city centre.
He bought the two to three-bedroom flat prior to auction for £135,000 and carried out a five-month renovation to restore it to its former glory.
Ross invested £35,000 into the works and turned the property into a short-term let.
A property expert valued it as worth £180,000 to £200,000 – a profit of up to £30,000.
Kirstie and Phil's Love It or List It has also had a Stirlingshire episode.
In series two, the hosts set out to help Karyn and Duncan in the Carron Valley.
The couple had been arguing for two years over what to do about their three-bed rural semi.
Phil took Karyn and Duncan to view properties in Fife, Strathyre and Sauchie, while Kirstie inspired a £40,000 upgrade.
At the end of the 2016 episode, they decided to keep the property.

Mo Chara says ‘I'm a free man' as Kneecap take to Glastonbury stage

Kneecap member Mo Chara said 'Glastonbury, I'm a free man' as the Irish rap trio took to the West Holts Stage at the festival on Saturday. The group, who hail from Belfast, have been in the headlines after member Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged with a terror offence.

Kneecap member DJ Provai signals to the crowd on the West Holts Stage (Yui Mok/PA) Access to the area around the West Holts Stage was closed around 45 minutes before their performance after groups of fans arrived to form a sea of Irish and Palestinian flags. In the run up to the festival at Worthy Farm in Somerset, several British politicians called for the group to be removed from the line-up and UK prime minister Sir Keir Starmer said their performance would not be 'appropriate'. Earlier on Saturday, the BBC confirmed they would not be live-streaming the set but said the performance is likely to be made available on-demand later.

'While the BBC doesn't ban artists, our plans ensure that our programming meets our editorial guidelines. 'We don't always live-stream every act from the main stages and look to make an on-demand version of Kneecap's performance available on our digital platforms, alongside more than 90 other sets.'

'They WILL put our set from Glastonbury today on the iPlayer later this evening for your viewing pleasure.' O hAnnaidh, 27, was charged with allegedly displaying a flag in support of proscribed terrorist organisation Hezbollah, while saying 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' at a gig in November last year. On June 18th, the rapper was cheered by hundreds of supporters as he arrived with bandmates Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh at Westminster Magistrates' Court in Free Mo Chara T-shirts. Advertisement He was released on unconditional bail until the next hearing at the same court on August 20th. Ahead of the group's performance, Gemma Gibson, 41, from Newcastle told the PA news agency that she was 'really excited' to see Kneecap perform. Asked if their set should have been cancelled amid the ongoing controversy, she said: 'Well, that would be completely against everything that Glastonbury stands for… This is where they should be.' Kaiser Chiefs performing on the Pyramid Stage (Yui Mok/PA) Also playing on Saturday afternoon were Leeds rock band Kaiser Chiefs and US star Brandi Carlile, who released an album with Sir Elton John earlier in the year.
